CVE-2026-8162
CVE-2026-8162 · multiparty vulnerable to Denial of Service via Uncaught Exception in filename* parameter parsing
This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.
[email protected] and lower versions are vulnerable to denial of service via uncaught exception. By sending a multipart/form-data request with a Content-Disposition header whose filename* parameter contains a malformed percent-encoding, the parser invokes decodeURI on the value without try/catch. The resulting URIError propagates as an uncaught exception and crashes the process. Impact: any service accepting multipart uploads via multiparty is affected. Workarounds: none. Upgrade to [email protected] or higher.
